Residential Facilities Opening at 9 a.m. on Friday, Jan. 17

As we look ahead to the weekend, the weather forecast remains uncertain, but there is a chance of a storm impacting the East Coast. Out of an abundance of caution, we have decided to open the residential facilities at 9 a.m. on Friday, Jan. 17, rather than our scheduled opening of Saturday morning. This will allow for travel in advance of the storm. As you plan your travel to campus, please be mindful of the conditions in your travel path and in Carlisle. We recommend that you monitor the forecast over the next few days to make a safe decision about your return.

If you are moving into a new space for the spring semester, you may pick up at key in the Residence Life & Housing Office Friday between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Saturday 9 a.m.-7 p.m., or Sunday 9 a.m.-7p.m. If you are arriving outside of these hours, please contact us to make other arrangements. Keys will not be available outside of these hours unless arrangements are made with Residence Life & Housing.

The meal plan will still begin on Sunday night at dinner. If you arrive earlier, you are responsible for your meals until the meal plan begins. Some Dining Services locations will be open. You can use declining balance, credit or cash in those facilities prior to the start of your meal plan. More information can be found here: www.dickinson.edu/info/20205/campus_dining/1968/special_announcements.

Please travel safely. We look forward to having you back on campus for the spring semester.
